Walking Tour of the City of Derry

Traffic-free it offers visitors the freedom of exploring the city from these sturdy walls which offer different views of Derry's rejuvenated city centre. Included among the many fine buildings which you can visit while touring the city are St Columb's Cathredral (1633) and the neo-Gothic Guildhall (1890).
A city rich in culture, our special mix of galleries, museums, interpretative and cultural centres create a trail along the Walls. Each venue programmes activities to suit all tastes, traditional music, verbal arts, visual and performing arts. This City tour also includes the award-winning, The Tower Museum. This thoroughly modern museum presents the history of the city from its geological formation to the present day. The Tower Museum, uniquely, has been named both Irish and British Museum of the Year.
